Your shits locked out due to blasting them with 1200ppm

feed half that with a proper ph’d solution

its not going to fix itself overnight either by the way

lift your lights, let them recover

Listen to bk78……..ya dude that 1200ppm should be at 600ppms…… also keep your pH from start to finish between 5.8 and 6.2 one day 5.8 next day 5.9 day after that 6.0 and 6.1 and 6.2 after that bring it back down to 5.8 and restart the cycle every day bring it up .1 this will keep your pH moving around and giving the plant and opportunity to take up everything that it needs under prime conditions…… also lift the lights up plants that are locked out nine times out of 10 they’re locked out of multiple nutrients Cal mag amongst other lockouts reduce the plants ability to withstand high intensity light which is why a lot of people with bad lockouts for the plants get crusty leaves and tacos…… if it were me add flush them all with 600 ppm feed until I saw seven or 800 ppm runoff then go 2 days let them root search that pot then repeat that proses untill their light after 24 hrs of no feed…… once that happens bump it up to twice a day that’s how you get Coco to perform how wants to you got a let them root out that pot…… The thing with Coco is you don’t need crazy strong feet there’s no buffering in Coco so what ever you give them they’re going to take up almost immediately especially when their rooted out…. Very important that you learn and observe, when and how often to feed coco when their not rooted out in their pots…… I don’t care what anybody says you can definitely overwater a plant that’s growing in coco….. I have ran into root rot damn near every grow when I first started in Coco….. One because my reservoir hung around 75 to 80°F and I didn’t know any better at the time add 2. I was watering plants multiple times a day that were nowhere near rooted out…. You’ll get there no worries any more problems reach out someone out here will help you…..

If he would’ve listened to what I typed on page 1, his plants would already be recovering.

Bro..I'm not feeding at 1200ppm! Ive corrected myself several times. Ive done several dwc grows over the last 6yrs and have never gone above 750ppm. Only the first time I was at 1100ppm and later only did I buy an ec meter to get things dialed in..
I've done a flush @ 400ppm ph5.8 and will continue feeding them with the same ph and ppm till I see improvements..

Oh it just loaded. Seed to harvest all in the same post. That’s a neat idea. Maybe I’ll try that on my next journal and leave out anything I want to hide from people seeing :D

I actually started using maxibloom inspired by Micks journal many years ago, but in dwc from seed to harvest. I know another user in overgrow.com who also uses it from seed to harvest along with gypsum in coco and beautiful plants. I did try his mix but I don't think it fits my plants well..
I seriously dont doubt maxiblooms capability. I suppose the problem lies in the user. Being dry salts, unlike jack's or masterblend, maxibloom seriously begins to deteriorate once moisture sets in the bag and one needs to store it well in an airtight container along with desiccant or paper to absorb moisture. I noticed the top portion of the salts in the bag being all clumpy with moisture and split only that bit into another bag and continued using it over the last 1-2 weeks. I noticed it wasn't mixing well and the usual pink color was replaced with a very light orange color. I just dumped that today and began using the good part which I kept aside and it mixed well and had the usual pink color. I just watered my plants ph'd at 5.8..fingers crossed...
